i really thought i'd struggle grasping onto sherlock holmes, given that the book was written in the 19th century and the english language was incredibly different then. however, it was no where near as complicated as i had expected, and easy to understand. i really do understand the sherlock holmes hype now. i'm so excited to get on with the series, and then move on to all the movies and tv show!
